Dual regulatory effects of resveratrol on activation of NF-κB and cell proliferation in human embryonal kidney 293 cells

Resveratrol (3,4‘,5-trihydroxystilbene, Res), a naturally occurring polyphenol, exhibits antioxidant, antiinflammatory, potential chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic properties in preclinical studies. To further understand its potential clinical efficacy and safety, effect of Res at 10^-9-10^-4 mol/L on human embryonal kidney (HEK293) cell proliferation and its potential mechanism were investigated in present study. Cell viability was detected by using trypan blue dye exclusion method. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry with propidium iodide stain.Activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) was determined by luciferase reporter gene assay using stably transfected HEK293/κB-luc cells. Secretion of human interleukin-8(hlL-8) was measured by ELISA. Our results show that HEK293 cell proliferation was significantly stimulated by 10^-7 mol/L Res after treatment for 48 hours, or by 10^-8-10^-7mol/L Res combinated with 10 ng/mL TNFα for 24 h, but was suppressed by 10^-4 mol/L Res with or without TNFα. Both endogenous and TNFα-induced NF-κB activation were downregulated by Res at 10^-7 mol/L, but were upregulated at 10^-4 mol/L. With 10^-4 mol/L Res, the content of secreted IL-8 was increased, and apoptosis rate was increased from lessthan 5 % to 10%, together with significant cell-cycle arrest in S phase. TNFα has coordinative effects with Res on HEK293 cell apoptosis, cell-cycle arrest and IL-8 secretion. These results indicate that Res promotes cell proliferation at low concentration through down-regulation of NF-κB activation in HEK293, but suppresses its growth at high concentration through up-regulation of NF-κB activation, increasing IL-8 and cell-cycle arrest. As resveratrol has dual regulatory effect on cell proliferation in vitro, comprehensive evaluation of its potential clinical utility is needed.     

栽宽杂种水稻不同发育时期幼穗离体培养的研究

随栽宽杂种幼穗发育过程的进程,其愈伤组织诱导率呈现由低→高→低的变化．通过愈伤组织阶段和幼穗直接分化培养均在第２期（第１次枝梗原基分化期）获得了最高的绿苗分化率．当第６期（花粉母细胞减数分裂期）幼穗诱导的愈伤组织完全丧失分化绿苗能力时,而幼穗直接分化仍能再生绿苗,并且此法具有操作简单,获得绿苗快的特点．     

石斛试管苗快速繁殖研究概况

简述２０年来石斛试管苗在组织培养技术、培养条件、原球茎增殖，幼苗分化与生长、试管苗移栽等方面的研究情况。认为，以石斛成熟种子和分生组织为材料进行无菌培养，可极大节省常规方法所要求的时间和空间，在短时间内能大量繁殖苗，试管苗移植成活率达６０％以上。但由试管苗育成的植株其成分含量有无变化，能否代替药材使用，以及变异的控制方法尚需进一步研究。     

环状芽胞杆菌基因启动子的分离与鉴定

环状芽胞杆菌（Ｂａｃｉｌｌｕｓｃｉｒｃｕｌａｎｓ）总ＤＮＡ经Ｓａｕ３ＡＩ酶切后插入到启动子探针型载体ｐＳＵＰＶ１的ＢａｍＨＩ位点，转化大肠杆菌后，在卡那霉素的平板上筛选到５０个抗性菌落。从随机挑取的２９个抗住菌落所分离到的质粒ＤＮＡ经限制酶切和琼脂糖凝胶电泳后表明，各质粒均有ＤＮＡ插入片段，对２９个样品进行卡那霉素抗性试验显示，抗性最高的可超过１０００μｇ／ｍＬ这表明来自环状芽胞杆菌的某些基因启动子能在大肠杆菌中十分有效地启动基因表达，选取两个最大的克隆ＤＮＡ片段ＢＣ３和ＢＣ６作为探针与Ｂ．ｃｉｒｃｕｌａｎｓｃ－２．总ＤＮＡ作Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ杂交，均获得杂交带。斑点杂交结果表明，这两个ＤＮＡ片段来自不同的基因启动子。对ＢＣ６和ＢＣ３分别进行了限制酶谱分析，并绘制了限制酶图。

中国紫菜养殖

中国养殖紫菜,在目前,主要是群众性廉式养殖坛紫菜P.haitanensis和条斑紫菜P.yezoensis。其养殖可分为两个阶段:首先,在室內培养、促熟壳斑藻conchocelis和全人工采壳孢子conchospore苗(坛紫菜通常田喷壳孢子水法);然后,在潮间带进行半浮动筏(簾)式养成。

寄生药用有花植物锁阳在寄主体内的繁殖

大量的形态解剖学观察证明，锁阳植株可在寄主根内繁殖“类生殖根状物组织”，通过这类组织的生长繁殖增加锁阳的个体，“类生殖根状物组织”的细胞核较大、细胞质浓、具有较强的分生能力，它们直接来源于锁阳芽体植入寄主根内的部分组织，或来源于锁阳植株上的不定根，后者的根尖粘于寄主根上并将“类生殖根状物组织的细胞”植入寄主根的皮层中并向四周分裂生长，在寄主根的一定部位膨大突出于根外形成新的锁阳芽体，由此进行无性繁殖。
